Application of preoperative NLR-based prognostic model in predicting prognosis of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma following radical surgery.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

To investigate the application value of the neutrophil to lymphocyte count ratio (NLR) in the prognostic analysis of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) after radical resection, and to offer guidance for the individualized perioperative diagnosis and treatment of ICC.

Methods

The clinical data of 360 patients diagnosed with ICC following radical surgery were retrospectively analyzed. The cut-off value of NLR was calculated using the minimum p-value method, and then divided into High-NLR (H-NLR) group and Low-NLR (L-NLR) group according to the NLR cut-off value. The prognostic value of NLR in ICC was analyzed. Subsequently, the patients were divided into the hepatolithiasis-related intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (HICC) group and the non-hepatolithiasis-relat
